To all that are concerned,

I am still sticking to the teaching that God created man will and all and man chose from that will to go in search of many schemes.

T,

I tend to believe is dodging T8’s point if that is what you are trying to get at.

T,

What does that post accomplish?

T8,

You do have a point but notice you did not use a pronoun because if you chose to use a pronoun then you would not know who you were speaking of. So writing God is manifest in the flesh is clearer to the reader than he is manifest in the flesh.

LU,

I am speaking of both as God promised David that one of David’s sons would also be the Son of God. Scripture teaches use that Jesus was made of the Seed of David, as of his flesh but as for his spirit he is the Son of God. He has to both to fulfill God’s promise to David for one that falls short of God’s glory would not as can be see of…[Read more]

To whomever it may be concern,

When you have a teaching before you test it for falseness.

John 14:13Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

I do not see where the believe asked in Jesus name in this passage.

Acts 4:24-30Authorized…

Tigger,

You are correct that musterion is neuter and from what I understand that makes a strong case it is speaking of something or someone else.

Tigger,

Your Bible Hub, like many lexicons, lumps the relative pronouns ὅς, ἥ, and ὅ together. If you look a little closer at each one, though, you will find that ὅς is a masculine, singular pronoun. This means that, when referring to a person, it means “who” (masc.) or, in other words, “he who” or even just “he.”

The neuter relative prono…

To whomever it concerns,

The trinity tenet of the Catholic was not officially established until the fourth century when the First Council of Constantinople did so in 381. The Council of Nicea was only a few decades earlier in 325 and all it officially established in the Catholic Church was the Jesus was God. I am not even sure there was a…[Read more]

Cammilia,

My understanding of the new heaven and new earth do come from Revelations 21 but I acknowledge prophecy can be even harder to understand than other Scriptures.

Camilla,

I believe in Amilenialism, a belief I arrived at with God’s help. It is the view I later discovered was held by the Eastern Orthodox Church and Lutheran, and to some degree the Catholics.

I disagree because the 1000 year reign was an established teaching at the time Jesus walked the earth though the 1000 year is not to be taken l…[Read more]

T8,

Now couple this with another puzzle. If Adam and Eve had never sinned, then would humans would be flesh and blood forever.

I do not follow the idea that human being become anything but flesh and bone so I believe human beings will flesh and blood forever but not the flesh and blood of this world of sin. Instead the bodies will be freed…[Read more]

Journey,

Isaiah 65:17-20 seems to disagree as if it is written according the the way time flows the new heaven and new earth come before a period when there are both sinners in the earth and humans die. That period could be the 1000 years as I might be mistaken about there death or dying during that time and perhaps there is also those that sin.…[Read more]

Spock,

Jesus came down from heaven, achieved unquestioned sovereignty and returned to heaven, he is still God of this world and still the Son of the Universal Father.

Illogical as Satan is God of this world of sin. Jesus is King of all things in heaven and on earth but God has not yet put all things under his feet.

Charles,

There is a difference between speculating and going by the evidence and I do not regard all evidence outside of Scripture as wisdom speaks wheresoever she chooses. I do have standards for the what I consider acceptable evidence and none of what you say comes up to those standards.

The message of the new covenant is to receive and live…[Read more]

Jourey42,

I think it comes into play after the 1000 years and has no death or dying in it, not any sinners. I also thought the Messianic age had not death or dying in it and no temptation, and so no sin, as Satan is bound at that time.

Journey42,

Revelation 21:1Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

21 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.

2 Peter 3:13Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein…

LU,

If Jesus was just a man yet receives the same honor and glory that the Father is given, that seems to contradict what the Jehovah of the OT has said.

Revelation 5:13New American Standard Bible (NASB)

13 And every created thing which is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all things in them, I heard…

LU,

I am saying Jesus is the one and only child of God that is by the promise he made to David. None of God’s other children are the child of that promise just like Ismael was not the child of the promise made to Abraham.

As God is not a creature his children are not the children of his body but they are the children of his spirit.

Just as…[Read more]

Grasshopper,

A fair amount of that evidence is hearsay and I do not believe the Catholic Church was in existence in the second century as one source claims. I did not look through it all.
